Phillips webcam PCVC810B/00

[ippy]

Hello out there,

It would be great if someone could help me. I have a philips PCVC810 webcam which I have attached to my scope in the past. I have recently upgraded to windows 7 and it will no longer work. Philips don't seem to have any drivers available and I wondered if anyone knew of any workarounds. If not, I will be happy to pass it on to anyone who can use it for a nominal fee. It has a 1.25"eyepiece adaptor fitted, so is ready to go. I would prefer to be able to use it myself though...

I have searched around for a driver for you but zilch, sorry. I play about with webcams in one of my hobbies and I have quite a few drivers, philips has not come up but can check and see if I can send you a few.

I have not come across Win 7 yet so not sure of it. PM me if you want the driver by email, all small so should get through in email.
